Belgrave Road - A Love Story

An unforgettable debut novel about two young people searching for better lives in England, and the blossoming forbidden love between them that threatens their futures, families, and everything they''ve built--a breathtaking story perfect for fans of Colm Toibín, Patricia Engel, and Monica Ali Mira arrives in England from India, following an arranged marriage to Rajiv, a man she hardly knows and who has little interest in knowing her. As she adjusts to the customs of her new home, she begins to discover painful secrets lurking in her new family, and a strange distance in Rajiv. When the family''s business struggles, she finds a job at a local sweet mart where, one day, she meets Tahliil. A Somali refugee, Tahliil is determined to make a better life for his mother and sister. His chance encounters with Mira spark a friendship built on stolen moments. As their connection grows stronger, and the differences in their worlds become more pronounced, the strain to sustain the lives they chose to live, and the ones they want to, becomes ever more constricting. Told in chapters that deftly alternate Mira and Tahliil''s points of view, Belgrave Road is an exquisite debut novel and contemporary reboot of the classic Romeo & Juliet love story. It brings fresh perspective to timeless questions about the perseverance of love, and serves as a memorable testament to the capaciousness of the human spirit.
